Grandparents Peter and Chris stepped on the long journey after deciding to “do something a bit different”. They traversed (横穿) cities, deserts, mountains and everything in between across Europe, the Middle East and the East Asia. The married couple of 37 years enjoyed themselves with delicious local food and spent most nights inside a tiny tent put up wherever they could find shelter.Peter, 66, said the moment they finally had a look at the famous Great Wall after a year and a half of cycling 30 miles a day was “really exciting”. At the end of their journey, the special pair didn’t fly home but instead choose to book a cabin (舱) inside a 400m-long container ship. The final part was a three-week voyage from Singapore across the Indian Ocean and into the Mediterranean Sea before arriving at Southampton.“You never know what the day is going to bring. All you know is that you aregoing to get on your bike and cycle. Every day is an adventure and every day is new. Overall, the experience is absolutely unbelievable, ” Peter said.Peter and Chris initially set out to cycle from Britain in January 2017 but were forced home. They had cycled all the way to Hungary when Peter slipped on tiles and broke his leg. After seven months of recovery, the couple set out again in Britain. They finally arrived in China in November 2018.Both Peter and Chris agreed that the best part of the entiretrip was coming across the kindness of strangers along the way, many of whom invited the couple for food and drink.

Fine particle pollution declined rapidly following the new rules on industrial emissions and the promotion of cleanfuels, according to the study, published on Monday in the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America. The study, which focused on the period from 2013-2017, was conducted by a group of Chinese researchers and scientists.PM2.5, as this kind of pollution is known, is so small that it can enter the bloodstream, potentially leading to cancer, stroke and heart attack in the long term. After rapid industrialization and weak regulations left the country with a reputation for smog and bad air quality, Chinese authorities started to take air pollution seriously in 2008.In 2013, Beijing had PM2.5 concentrations 40 times higher than levels recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO), and the governmentintroduced its toughest-ever clean air policies that year. The study found “signif icant declines” in PM2.5 levels across China from 2013-2017, with new standards for thermal power plants and industrial boilers, the replacement of old factories, and new emissions rules for vehicles. The authors say this “confirms the effectiveness of Chi na’s recent clean air actions.”These recent actions have seen Beijing fall out of the top 100 most-polluted cities in Asia in recent years, with the pollution levels 10% lower across Chinese cities between 2017 and 2018, according to a report by Greenpeace and AirVisual. Shanghai, the country’s largest city and financial capital, has also made environmental advances, such as adopting strict recycling regulations. Public pressure has been the driving force of pollution policy in China.Air pollution is a global issue, and India is now home to 22 of the 30 most polluted world cities, according to the Greenpeace and AirVisual report. In the US, a recent study said air pollutionwas linked to more than 107,000 deaths in 2011 and cost the country $866 billion.8. What saved many lives in China?A. China’s clean air policies.B. The increased particle pollution.C. The study by researchers.D. The reduction of the clean fuels.9. Why did PM2.5 cause many diseases?A. It was called smog.B. It made the air cleaner.C. It went into the blood.D. It had a bad reputation.10. When did Chinese government decide to treat the pollution?A. In 2008.B. In 2013.C. In 2017.D. In 2018.11. What did people in Shanghai do to protect the environment?A. They built the thermal power plants.B. They stopped using industrial boilers.C. They made Shanghai financial capital.D. They tried to recycle some rubbish.DIn the 1994 film Forrest Gump, there’s a famous saying, “Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re gonna get.” The surprise is part of the fun. Now blind box toys are bringing the magic of surprise to online shopping.A blind box toy is hidden inside uniform packaging(包装) butinvisible from the outside. You don’t know what will be inside, although the toys typically come from pop culture, ranging from movies to comics and cartoons.Blind boxes have caught on since they were first introduced from Japan to China in 2014. According to a 2019 Tmall report, the mini-series of Labubu blind box. designed by Hong Kong -born Kasing Lung, was named Champion of Unit Sales with 55,000 sold in just 9 seconds during the Singles Day shopping event. Most customers for blind boxes are young people aged 18 to 35.According to The Paper, blind box toys are popular in part because of their cute appearances. The typically cute cartoon figurines (小塑像) come in miniature (微型的) sizes, making them suitable for display almost anywhere.Even if blind boxes are not their top choice for decorations(装饰品), the mystery and uncertainty of the process also attracts people. It’s the main reason why people buy blind boxes one after another.“Fear of the unknown is always a part of the box-opening process,” said Miss Cao, 24, who lives and works in Shenyang. Speaking to Sina News, she said: “Until you open all the boxes, you cannot know what it is inside.”Opening a blind box is a delightful little surprise for our mundane daily lives, something small but fun to wait for each day, week or month. When people open this simple little box, they may be disappointed, but the uncertainty is part of the fun. People will open more blind boxes and hope for a better outcome.When someone re-makes Forrest Gump, don't be surprised if he says, “Life is like a blind box.”12.What feature of blind boxes attracts people?A.They often get toys designed by famous artists.B.They don’t know what they’ve got until they open them.C.They can learn about pop culture from the packaging.D.They can experience the excitement of online shopping.13.Why does Miss Cao love blind box toys?。

The tradition of carrying or wearing one of each item is said to bring luck and fortune to the newly married couple. Have you ever stoppedto think what the saying really means? What is its origin and what does each item represent?The original saying dates back to the Victoria times and states, “something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue and a silver sixpence in your shoe.”Something old A bride may wear or carry something old to represent her continued ties to her family and her old life. Many brides wear a piece of family jewelry as their old items. Some brides wear the wedding dress worn by their mother or grandmother. In many cases, something old may also be something borrowed.Something new Wearing something new is supposed to represent success and hope in the bride’s new life and in her marriage. If the bride purchases her wedding dress new, it may represent her news items, but any item that is new may be used. Something “new” is usually the easiest kind to fill.Something borrowed The borrowed item should be something borrowed from a friend that is happily married. It is said that their happiness will rub off on you and bring lasting happiness to our marriage. Some brides borrow an item of clothing, a piece of jewelry, a handkerchief or perhaps a beaded(带珠子的) purse.Something blue Wearing something blue dates back to ancient times when a blue wedding dress was worn to represent purity ,fidelity and love.Silver sixpence Placing a silver sixpence in the bride’s left shoe is said to be a symbol of wealth. This not only refers to financial wealth, but also a wealth of happiness and joy throughout her married life. Since most brides probably don’t even know what a sixpence is, this part of the tradition is not used very often in modern times. However, if a bride would like to include it in her wedding, she can purchase a silver sixpence from many companies that sell bridal supplies such as garters(袜带) and invitations.24. Why does the first paragraph end with two questions?A. To invite readers to answer them at once.B. To show the importance of this tradition.C. To have readers’ interest and attention.D. To test readers knowledge about wedding.25. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Something old might also be something borrowed actually.B. The part of the tradition “silver sixpence” is never used now.C. The borrowed item can be something borrowed from any friend.D. Something new is usually the most difficult and expensive kind to fill.26. What can we infer from the passage?A. No brides now are not familiar with the silver sixpence.B. Every item represents something good for the new couple.C. The bride will be more beautiful with all these five items.D. Of the five items, something blue is the most important one.27. Which word can replace the underlined word “fidelity” in the sixth paragraph?A. SuccessB. WealthC. LoyaltyD. OpportunityCSometimes people call each other “scared-cat”. But have you ever thought about this expression? When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles get tense and thereare changes in the chemicals in its bloodst ream. Although the cat doesn’t realize this, its body is getting ready for action. If the danger continues, the animal will do one of two things. It will protect itself, or it will run away as fast as it can.Something like this also happens to people. When we are excited, angry or scared by other feeling, our bodies go through many physical changes. Our hearts beat faster, and our muscles get tense. All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react. We, too, get ready to defend ourselves or run.Human beings, however, have a problem that animals never face. If we give way to our feelings and let them take over, we can get into trouble. Have you ever said something in anger, or hit somebody and regretted it later? Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told somebody you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut? It isn't always clever to express your feelings freely.Does this mean that it's smarter always to hide our feelings? No! If you keep feelings of anger, sadness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense. Physical illnesses can develop, and you can feel disturbed badly inside. It can actually be bad for your health. It isn’t good to keep pleasant feelings inside either; all feelings need to be expressed.Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside don't just go away. It's as if you bought some bananas and put them in a cupboard. You might not be able to see them, but before long you'd smell them. And if you opened the cupboard, chances are you'd see little fruit flies flying all over them. They are bad.You can try to treat feelings as if they were bananas in the cupboard. You can hide them and you can pretend they don’t exist, but they’ll still be around. And at last you’ll hav e to deal with them, just like those bananas.28. When people and animals are aroused by anger or fear, __________.A. they feel very regretful immediatelyB. their muscles get neither tense nor relaxedC. their hearts beat either faster or slowerD. they may get ready to attack or run away29. Why do human beings get into trouble according to the passage?A. They are usually not as alert as animal.B. They sometimes can’t control their feelings.C. They always do something wrong to other people.D. They don’t pay attention to their physical changes.30. What can we infer from the passage?A. Holding in your feelings may lead to unpleasant results.B. Bananas stay fresh longer when they are in a cupboard.C. Feelings will gradually disappear when you hold them in.D. It’s good for your health to keep pleasant feelings inside.31. What is the purpose of this passage?A. To tell us that people’s feelings are like bananas in a cupboard.B. To give us some advice on how to express our feelings.C. To help us deal with feelings in a wise and proper way.D. To prove that it isn’t always wise to express our feelings freely.DDiamonds are considered as the most famous and valuable jewel in the world. The precious stone for its great value is believed to be the symbol of wealth. Diamonds were made as a result of great volcanic heat and pressure. When a volcano is active, it sometimes explodes and causes great damage to the nearby towns.However, at the same time of such a disaster, diamonds were pushed towards the surface of the earth by a number of great volcanic explosions millions of years ago. Thus, it may be very likely to find a diamond after a volcano eruption. Besides, diamonds are also found among the sand and stones of certain river beds, and in a few places on the floor of the sea, for they were washed down the mountain sides by the rain.Diamonds are very rare. There are not many places that produce such precious things in the world. During the last century adventurers form Europe went to Brazil, because they had heard that there were diamonds in the River Amazon. Many of these early diamond miners died of illness or were lost forever in the great forests. But some returned home rich.The earliest known diamonds were found in India many centuries ago. The most recent and exciting discoveries have been made in eastern Russia. But most of the world’s diamonds now come from Congo, from Tanzania------which has the largest diamond mine in the world and also from South Africa.32. What do we know about diamonds according to the passage?A. Diamonds are always accompanied by volcano eruptions.B. Diamonds are created by volcano eruptions.C. Diamonds are considered as a sign of wealth.D. Diamonds could be always found in a few riverbanks.33. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a famous place producing diamonds?A. CongoB. South AfricaC. IndiaD. Western Europe34. What can we know from the third paragraph?A. Diamond mining can be dangerous for the miners.B. Brazil plays a more important role in diamond mining.C. River Amazon has no large diamond mines nowadays.D. Many miners returned home due to the risks in diamond mining.35. What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph?A. Eastern Russia has been famous for diamond mining for a long time.B. The diamond deposit in eastern Russia wasn’t discovered until recently.C. Eastern Russia is not as important as African countries in diamond mining.D. The eastern part of Russia will replace all African countries in diamond mining.第二节When high temperatures are around the country, some things also go up. Here are four things expected to rise along with our desire to stay indoors and beat the heat.①Sales of goods that keep you coolMalls are high on the list of places where people often go for free air conditioning outside home in summer. 36 Goods related to keeping cool, like air conditions, fans or sun careitems, are very popular.②37Pests like stink bugs(椿象) grow fast during summer heat waves, and many agriculture experts are expecting a repeat of last year’s outbreak that harmed fruit and crops, particularly on the East Coast.③Energy bills38 With all those conditioners and fans working, it makes sense that energy bills will be higher than average. 39 “Not only are people going to have extremely high energy bills for July, it will also put increased stress on power plants, and we’re going to see more air pollution because of it,” says Angela Fritz.④ViolenceHeat waves may cause violence, right?Not necessarily, says Richard Larrick, a researcher. He took a unique look at the relationship between violence and heat through baseball. Larrick and his research team examined 57, 294 Major League Baseball games taking place between 1962 and 2017 and found that while heat may increase violence, there always has to be a motive. “40Instead, heat affects a specific form of violence,” he said.A. Air pollutionB. Pest populationC. Rising heat is the expected response in any summer.D. Heat does not directly lead to more violence in general.E. More and more people are worried about their expenses.F. As more energy is used, air-quality problems may occur.G. So it’s not a surprise that some sales jump during heat waves.第三部分英语知识运用第一节完形填空One day when I was 13, my family was working in the fields to clear away old brush when somehow the electric fence sparked (冒火星）and 41.______ a fire.

I have always wanted to become a journalist (新闻记者). Since Ms. Runkle used to be a journalist back in the United States, she has introduced many helpful journalistic writing skills to me.Although she is my teacher, Ms. Runkle and I are more like friends. She often invites my classmates and me to take part in different activities outside of school. For example, I went to listen to a journalist's speech, which helped me better understand current events (时事).Not only does Ms. Runkle talk with me outside of school, she is also a great teacher in the classroom. English Language and Composition is a really hard subject for a second language learner. We felt worried in the beginning, but Ms. Runkle really makes an effort to help us out. In class, Ms. Runkle always encourages students to question everything to keep us active. One part of class I love the most is when groups of students are required to give speeches on events that are happening in the world.

Besides (除……之外，还有)"Shanzhai" electronic products, there are "Shanzhai" movies, "Shanzhai" stars and even a "Shanzhai" Spring Festival Gala, a copy of the 25-year-old traditional show presented by CCTV on Chinese Lunar New Year's Eve."Shanzhai" has become a culture of its own, meaning anything that imitates something famous. In Chongqing, "Shanzhai" version "Bird's Nest（鸟巢）" and "Water Cube（水立方）" woven by farmers with bamboo attract(吸引) wide attention from tourists. Both are copies of the famous Olympic buildings in Beijing.A literature critic said that taking the "Shanzhai" Gala as an example, when the traditional CCTV program becomes less and less attractive to the audience, the "Shanzhai" version appears timely to attract people. "Although it is often connected with poor techniques and operation, 'Shanzhai' culture meets the psychological needs of common people and could be a comfort to their minds," he said.To the mainstream（主流） culture, the rise of "Shanzhai" culture is a challenge and a motivation（推动）. People believe different kinds of cultures developing together is a perfect way and it is for the public to choose.12．The Chinese word "Shanzhai" may have started with_______.A. fake(假的) cell-phonesB. electronic productsC.

它的体制、风貌大概始绕没有脱离先秦奠定下来的这个基础规范。
秦汉、唐宋、明清建筑艺术基本保持了和延续着相当一致的美学风格。
这种艺术风格是什么呢?简单来说,便是作为中国民族特点的实践理性精神。
首先,各民族主要建筑多半是供养神的庙堂，如：希腊神殿、伊斯兰建筑、哥特式大教堂等等。
中国却主要是宫殿建筑，即供世上活着的君主们所居住的场所。
大概从新石器时代的所谓“大房子”开始,中国的祭拜神灵即在与现实生活紧紧相联系的世间居住的中心，而不在脱离世俗生活的场所。
于是，不是孤立的、摆脱世俗生活、象征超越人间的出世的宗教建筑，而是入世的、与世间生活环境联在一起的宫殿宗庙建筑,成了中国建筑的代表。
从而,不是高耸入云、指向神秘的上苍观念,而是平面铺开、引向现实的人间联想;不是可以使人产生某种恐惧感的异常空旷的内部空间,而是平易的、非常接近日常生活的内部空间组合;不是阴冷的石头,而是暖和的木质,等等,构成中国建筑的艺术特征。
中国的这种理性精神还表现在建筑物严格对称结构上,以展现严肃、方正、井井有条（理性）。
所以,就单个建筑来说,比起基督教、伊斯兰教和佛教建筑来,它确乎相对低矮,比较平淡,应该承认逊色一筹。
但就整体建筑群说,它却结构方正,逶迤交错,气势雄浑。
它不是以单个建筑物的体状形貌取胜,而是以整体建筑群的结构布局、制约配合而取胜。
非常简单的基本单位却组成了复杂的群体结构,形成在严格对称中仍有变化,在多样变化中又保持统一的风貌。
这种流动美,在个体建筑物的空间形式上,也同样表现出来,这方面又显出线的艺术特征,因为它是通过线来做到这一点的。

一、现代文阅读（20分）（一）论述类文本阅读（6分）阅读下面的文字，完成１～３题。
《左传》的叙事艺术童庆炳任何事件都发生在一定的时问和空间里面。
这是普通常识。
但在文学叙事中，就出现了两个时间：一个是原本故事发生的时间，一个是讲故事人讲的时间。
原本故事发生的时问就是故事发生的自然时间，可以称为“故事时间”；讲故事人的时间，可以根据讲故事人的需要，把时间打乱，把后面发生的事情放到前面讲，或把前面发生的事情放到后面讲，这就是所谓的“文本时间”。
一般来说，中国古代叙事文学顺时序的演进多，而逆时序的演进少。
《左传》中倒叙、插叙也有，但不是很多，“几大战役”的描写莫不按自然时间演进。
可能受中国叙事文学的开篇《左传》影响，像后来的《史记》《三国演义》《水浒传》等莫不如此。
为何《左传》和中国古代叙事文学多按自然时间顺叙呢？这主要是中国古代“尚农”，是一种农业文明。
农业文明看重耕田种地，而耕田种地当然要对四时的更替特别敏感。
因为春夏秋冬四时的变化直接影响农业的生产。
守时、顺时，是中国古人根深蒂固的观念，所谓“不误农时”。
就是对于那些在精神领域活动的人来说，也明白“春秋代序，阴阳惨舒，物色之动，心亦摇焉”的道理。
这种从农业文明所滋长出来的文化观念，都不能不影响叙事文学对于事件演进时间的把握与运用。
即从守时到顺时，折射到文学叙事上则是更重视顺叙，认为顺叙最为自然，也最能为大家所接受。
《左传》和其后中国古代叙事文学即使有倒叙的逆时间演进，也与西方神话、小说的那种倒叙的功能有所不同。
西方叙事作品擅长逆时的倒叙演进，把人带到一种令人震惊的、出人意料的状态中，由此造成强烈的悬念，出现惊心动魄的效果。
